I've been hosting the Afternoon Show on Y105 for more than seven years! I have a beautiful wife, Claudia, and adorable daughter, Lydia. I've lived in Dubuque for over a decade and I absolutely love this city! I host Hawkeye games at Lot One on Saturdays in the fall, 'The Dating Game' at Skinny Maginny's one Tuesday a month and can be found pushing a stroller on walks along South Grandview from time-to-time. I'm a passionate Minnesota Vikings fan (and Twins, Wild and Wolves), but truly appreciate having a fun conversation with the adversary (Bears, Packers fans).

Progress is Being Made
Back in January, I blogged about how I was going to start eating healthier and exercising more regularly. I've followed through with that promise (aside from some pizza here and a burger on the grill there) and I'm starting to see the results...

3 Years Ago Today I Made the Best Decision of My Life
April 28th, 2012 was a rainy, unseasonably cold Saturday. I woke up and went straight to Doland Jewelers on JFK Road to pick up the most expensive piece of jewelry I will ever buy. On the way home, I decided to stop by Panera and grab some bagels for breakfast...
My Daughter’s First Two Months Have Flown By
It's a very small sample size, but I'm starting to understand why parents always dwell on how quickly their kids grow up. It's been 9 weeks since my daughter was born and it truly feels like she was born a few weeks ago.
Saturday morning I was on a walk with my parents and we were stopped by a couple I've known since I was a kid (and haven't seen since then either)...

Over the weekend, I was in Minnesota and went out with friends on Saturday night. We were at a bar and a few of the people in our group were talking about buying pull-tabs.
I casually mentioned that I thought it would be fun to try it and that I had never done it before...
